Blue Box Cafe at South Coast Plaza is a Jewel of a Bistro

All things Tiffany & Co. come in unmistakable blue packaging, and its new bistro is no exception. The first Blue Box Cafe opened in 2017 at the jewelry company’s flagship Fifth Avenue location in New York City; the second is in the boutique’s stunning new relocated space at South Coast Plaza, which nearly doubles the size of its quarters since 1998. Fans of the beloved Audrey Hepburn film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” pop in for exactly that—chia-seed yogurt pudding with farmer’s market fruit, croissant with Oxnard strawberries and lavender mascarpone, avocado toast, smoked salmon-buckwheat mille-feuille, and Tiffany-blend tea costs $120 for two—or the Tiffany Tea with scones, tea sandwiches, chicken salad, petit fours, and confections is $150 for two; add $750 if you want the Color Block bone-china set for two to take home. The eatery opened with takeout only; enter through the Home & Accessories salon. 3333 Bristol St., Costa Mesa
